Any reports for this? I've never used MAX/MSP, but have used Pd at times to do specific tasks. But I'm getting to the point that I'd like to put together a 'system' of my own, custom mixer, step sequencer, etc. And MAX could help me tie it together with Live, which is the center of my software world.

Then through that, have my editing capabilities for the DSI Evolver, some custom Nord G2 patches, and maybe my Lexicon MPX-1, if I ever do get it ALL together.

Anyone know if Live Launchpad Edition supports Max For Live or other 3rd party plugins? Or does one have to upgrade to the full version of Live?

I believe that to run any Max for Live plugins, you have to purchase the Max for Live product. I do not know whether that product is available as an add-on for the Launchpad Edition, but if I had to guess, I would be inclined to doubt it.

I suppose you can find out for sure by logging into your Ableton account and asking it what upgrades are available.

I'm asking here because I don't see an Ableton forum, but... I own Reaktor 5. Can I run a Reaktor 5 plugin within Live Launchpad edition? What about other Audio Unit plugins?

I'm trying to get a better understanding of the overall costs of adding the Live platform to my rig. I get the impression only the full version of Live (Live can host plugins._________________Current and recent work on Soundcloud

Thanks, Andy. I recall doing some homework on the Live and Max For Live pricing and finding that it was actually cheaper to buy a Launchpad, get Live Launchpad Edition with it, and then upgrade to Live 8, than it was to try to upgrade from my existing Max/MSP license just to get Max For Live.

I am not in the greatest hurry to do so, but my plan sometime this year is to acquire a Zeta violin and a Keith McMillen StringPort, which comes with a Max/MSP based software suite._________________Current and recent work on Soundcloud

In a single Reaktor plugin you can run many instruments so the limit of 4 plugins wouldn't be too bad.

If you look in the user library for midi guitar you can see some stuff I did for converting instruments to work with 6 channel midi, might be useful for you.

Thanks! I'll take a look.

One apparent problem I will be looking to solve is related to the KARMA feature of my Korg M3. KARMA has the ability to generate music based on holding down a chord on the keyboard. I think the events sent to KARMA from the keyboard to trigger this behavior is differed from the MIDI events sent to KARMA from the Roland VG-99 when I play a chord and sustain it the natural way (simply continuing to hold down the notes on the fingerboard).
